Have you ever done volunteer work?

Question

What is it like? Is it fun or boring? How long did you do it?

Answer 1

depends on what you volunteer for I  volunteer for my local humane society walking dogs and I like it besides the picking up poo but with something good theres always a down fall

Answer 2

It is fun if you choose something you like.

I worked in a kitchen once and i did not like it, but when I was called to do a documentary in a small community I really loved it.

Answer 3

It's fun and fulfilling.  I like being involved with Habitat for Humanity and doing service projects like revitalizing a park or repairing a school playground because I can see the difference I made when I pass by that school, park or house.

I also volunteer with an organization that provides meals to the homeless in a tent city and christmas gifts to children and families living in poverty.  Those ar ethe ones that make me reflect on how incredibly blessed I am and that I should be doing more to share that with others.

Answer 4

Yes,

I voluneteered at a Chamber of Commerence and an Animal Shelter. I loved doing it because it had to do with things that i loved. I did it for sping break and 2 summers.

Answer 5

Started at a nursing home when I was in high school and have had several volunteer "jobs" since.  I'm almost 40 years old now.

Red Cross, American Cancer Society, Boy Scouts, Church... Sometimes it was fun other times it was kinda boring-- but doing it made a difference.  Pretty much anything that you LIKE to do, can be done as a volunteer.

Answer 6

I did for school at a hospital once. It was incredibly boring. If I did volunteer again it would be doing something I like which is volunteering at an animal shelter! .. .
